Neither Kashmir (nor Khalistan earlier) can be resolved by countering terror with force alone.
The problem arises from false histories, cutting from Hindu ethos. Any part of India cut from Hindu civilization will fall. Indian State fails in narratives.
Unfortunately the BJP (from RSS roots) is terrible at narrative building. It fails in the academia and media ecosystem. Congress, of course, never had Indic intent. This is the reason India fails miserably in telling its story in the world. The problem stems from Indian academia.
As someone investing my savings and entire energy in building an Indic ecosystem, I'd like to put on record that there is ZERO support from the BJP or the govt for this. Tag whoever you want, but it's the reality.
This is in stark contrast to how the Congress-Left cultivate and support their ecosystem. Heck VP Ansari even built RS TV using govt funds just for ecosystem, channelled money to The Wire. This is how far they go to support.
Doesn't come from thin air.
Why blame how foreign media writes about India when the same agenda is pushed at Indian universities without any change under the BJP?
I was among the first to criticize the BJP for not doing enough for Hindu civilizational issues and also for its minority schemes.
This critique is from 2016.
However the alternative is *much* worse. If the Congress alliance comes to power, it will take us decades back—economically, socially, civilizationally—and viciously target Hindus even more than it has done before.
There is only one choice in this election for Hindus and indeed for all Indians who care about India. Set your doubts aside and go out and vote.
1. Article 370 repeal 2. Bifurcation of J&K 3. Ram Mandir (though I give only partial credit to them, but they created the "mahaul for SC judgment.) 4. Start on Indian languages in Higher Ed 5. IKS initiative
I asked @google Gemini an identical question about 3 different religions.
"What are the problems with x (religion)"
Check its answers.
In the case of Islam, it found the question itself problematic and refused to list any problems.
In case of Hinduism, it goes on to list specific things after a generic disclaimer.
Apparently, while Gemini has no problems listing "caste system" and "gender inequality" among problems of Hinduism, it does not dare to list even "gender inequality" as a problem with Islam.
With Christianity, again Gemini didn't have problems with listing issues such as "Treatment of Women", Homosexuality and LGBTQ rights, Intolerance and Exclusivism. All of these apply equally, if not more, to Islam, but Gemini wouldn't list those in that case.
India under Congress was a violent oppressive and riot-free India as “seculars” relied on mafias and the criminal class and dividing people in fear to cling on to power.
That’s the “my India” that the “liberal” elite are nostalgic for.
What are the actual causes of the Israel-Palestinian Conflict and why do Muslims worldwide rally to the Palestinian cause?
Often there is a lot of obfuscation around this topic, but the clearest exposition of the Islamic position comes from the Charter of Hamas. A thread 1/n
One of the features of the Left apologetics for Islamic movements is to secularize them to to assign to them causes and aims that are at variants with their own clear objectives.
As #JihadCoolies, the Left obfuscates goals of Hamas to make it more palatable to a wider audience.
A spin is that this is about actions Israel is not taking or its atrocities. But why would Muslims around the world rally for this cause vs that of atrocities on Uighur or Baloch or Yemeni Muslims?
The Hamas charter tells why—to kill Jews ushers the Day of Judgment (qayamat).
Savitribai Phule is a recent 'discovery.' She was created as a propaganda icon in the 1980s, there is negligible references to her before that in books/academic papers.
She was created to support missionary propaganda of "bringing Jesus" and "emancipating Dalits." See spike.
In 1981 in Lok Sabha issues is raised to make a documentary on "great revolutionary" Phule. (Parliamentary Debates, House of the People, 1981 <- where can we find who this is).
At the same time "Savitrabai Phule Foster Parent Scheme" is started in Maharashtra. Who orchestrated?
Absolutely. Our "heroes" are carefully manufactured for us. Even Gandhi was propped up because he suited British interests. See new book "Reevaluating Gandhi" from @GarudaPrakashan.
1. The Index comprises of two parts:
a. A quantitative score based on various incidents against journalists 2. A qualitative score based on a survey and 'opinions' of 'specialists.'
1. See formula for abuses score. It will be higher (better) if x is lower. (x=0, 100 is perfect score, no abuse).
Now x is calculated by summing the product of the number of instance of abuse (xᵢ) weighted by the kind of abuse (kᵢ), divided by the log of the population. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Here is where the first manipulation comes in. Dividing by the Log of the population makes x higher for countries with higher total population even if the abuses per capita remain the same.
See the table below with 3 hypothetical countries of population 1 billion, 100 million… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
